Rough Ryder Reserve RRR025 Sabacc

[@davidkurle5418]

The color on that micarta is absolutely gorgeous! Thanks for the look at this one, buddy!

[@martinjones215]

this one goes head to head with your beaver tale... and thank you to show again your spanish navajas!

[@andrewp.schubert2417]

Nice knife. Loved the music on the slideshow.

[@johnelder4273]

Tobias, I have not been enamored with the RRR knives but that is a beautiful knife. Thanks for showing it to us! I really like that Navaja (however it is spelled) and the Lagouille. Just beautiful lines.

[@KnifeChatswithTobias]

I have seen many a head shakers in Reserve line as well. I agree about the Laguiole and Navaja. They’re just an elegant yet functional design.

[@jeroenvoss6231]

It's a well executed modern powderhorn. I could enjoy a backlock or midlock on future versions as well as a dark wood scale. I did expect a more solid spring action because of the knob at the end, but i have no problems being as is. Thank you for showing and sharing Tobias.

[@KnifeChatswithTobias]

I think a locking version would sell pretty well. I would much prefer a back lock or the lever used on the classic Spanish Navaja over a liner lock. I think the the things that are most likely to disappoint people is the light spring tension and the blade movement when closed. But both of these are common in the land of large toothpicks.

[@jeroenvoss6231]

@@KnifeChatswithTobias If they put out a locking version, the case of light spring tension would be taken out. Through the long thin blade blade movement happens a lot, people who have toothpicks specially the larger ones won't be concerned.

[@robertbenton1444]

I just picked up one at SMKW yesterday mostly because of your review I am very impressed with it, for $40 it's a great deal

[@KnifeChatswithTobias]

Glad you like it. I know toothpicks aren't for everyone but this one has good action and a wide enough blade to make it more useful than some of the skinnier toothpicks out there!

[@robertbenton1444]

I agree

[@carlangstrom3025]

Thank you for showing this knife.

[@papik1965]

Thanks Tobias. That is a beautiful looking knife, colour of micarta is really rich. I’ve got a slip joint made in France by family owned business Chambriard. Knife is called Le Thiers. Also beautifully made, and yes same thing, movement in blade when closed but rock solid when open.

[@dgm2006]

I usually only buy small pocket knives I like for everyday carry. Especially single bladed ones. But I sent for this one last night. It just looks so good I couldn’t resist. This will be my second RRR. The other being the Barlow. Can’t wait either.

[@KnifeChatswithTobias]

The Barlow and this knife are the only two RRR knives that I've really been happy with so far.

[@jerb3235]

You do have a knack for making me interested in knives I wouldn’t ordinarily go for

[@occasionalnick1000]

A fine show, thanks a bunch.

[@357Python]

Really enjoy your videos. Mine is scheduled to be delivered today, can’t wait. Love the Toothpick pattern knives especially large ones. Love the look of the burgundy micarta.

[@dp505knives]

Glad you obtained a knife that brings you joy. The feel in hand and the pleasure of getting something that speaks to our emotions is a gift. PS well done on your words of humility.

[@nickdolin393]

I knew when I looked this knife up, you'd have one Tobias, lol. I know you love the large toothpick style knives. Great video as always, enjoy it.

[@paddyspotatopeelers2154]

Thanks Tobias really enjoyed your review and although its not my favourite style and feel compelled to get this if they get over the shuck.atb paddy

[@skcamerican]

It’s a handsome knife. Good to see new color in the covers, too. I’m not going to buy it - it’s too big and I’m too cheap. I’m happy with the regular RR line.

[@n2jmb]

Another great video sir!! Thanks for sharing!!

[@bobgartin4165]

Great review! Thank you.

[@skatepuunksurvivalist8536]

Got mine coming. Thanks Tobias

[@WilliamsKnifeLife]

Wow! Now that's a nice one.

[@JoseGonzalez-yx6vm]

Nice size and very well put together, I assume they are still put together by hand while modern techniques are used for making the parts. thanks for sharing it.

[@GenWivern2]

There are things that I like and things that I do not with this knife, but for the first time with RRR the former comfortably outweigh the latter. No sign of it in the UK yet, and it wouldn't surprise me if the stockists passed on it because large toothpicks are as rare as hen's teeth over here, unlike big Laguioles, oddly enough. Thanks for the review, Tobias, top notch as ever.

[@philipstephan5451]

Great looking knife, im sure smkw understands that people get excited about recieving ther knives. I know when i am expecting something in the mail i am out checking the box myself. It was nice that you appologized though. Enjoy your new knife, and take care. Blessings😊

[@jerradbyers]

The "pull" you are referring to at around 9:10 is called "The walk and talk" in the slip joint circles.

[@KnifeChatswithTobias]

I am aware of the term walk and talk and have used it on several occasions. Thank you.

[@jerradbyers]

I figured you were familiar with the phrase, especially reviewing slip joints. It was directed towards people new to knives who may have heard that phrase before, but might not be sure what its referring to. It kind of caught me off guard not going to lie. In a way I was clarifying it for myself as well 🙃

[@jimrowland6089]

I think that one is a home run. Looking forward to a few of the new RRR patterns. I would love some kind of bone handle scale, jig red bone being my favorite but red or burgundy micarta is not bad at all.

[@SubUrbanNinja-EDC]

Yeah I agree, its a beautiful knife. The color scheme is of the Star Wars Old Republic, reminiscent of the prequels star wars 1 and 2.

[@KnifeChatswithTobias]

Thanks for that tidbit on the colors scheme. I didn't know.

[@beaurex4756]

Absolutely fantastic music . Does this group perform at the Volcano Club?

[@piperkennard1039]

Excellent video, brother 👍

[@timberwolf3417]

Those are nice looking knives you got some good pocket knives. 👍

[@4NdR3_K]

Love the colours 👍

[@felinebline7154]

God bless "old".

[@KnifeChatswithTobias]

You can say that again!

[@Cameron_OKG]

This knife is on my list for sure . great video ! But in regards to Laguiole knives from France and almost all other French knives they do in fact rest the tip on the spring . There reasoning for this is as you use and sharpen over time you will never develop a proud tip . they even have an expression that roughly translates to " Close gently so you don't damage the tip " When you closed yours I winced when it slammed home . thanks Tobias !

[@pwh5805]

I’d love to know what that expression is in French.

[@propblast82nd]

Some auto parts are taking forever to get to distributors

[@KnifeChatswithTobias]

It is wide spread. There are still some food items that seem to go in and out of stock. Very strange.

[@WilliamsKnifeLife]

Even doctors lose patience 😄

[@אלכסס-ח5ג]

and patients 😝

[@alpine1600s]

CaseXX is owned by Zippo, who I would have to say holds the leash fairly tight. If Case did, it would be a while, they're still trying to sell their new frame locks. 👍

[@swamp.stomper]

Great looking knife there. The Laguiole looks pretty decent too! Not much different from a legit entry level one from en Aubrac or elsewhere. I’m sure SMKW will forgive you losing your patience after all the cashito you’ve funnelled in their direction over the years 😅

[@Bladeblinded1957]

Tobias do you have a honey hole where you by your RR knives is it a secret

[@KnifeChatswithTobias]

I get most new ones from SMKW. Most of the RR I show were bought new. I've been collecting them for a while.

[@Bladeblinded1957]

@@KnifeChatswithTobias thanks Tobias appreciate your response

[@jimmyj4811]

A bit pricey, but nice.

[@alpine1600s]

Lesson: NEVER GET OLD.🤣👍

[@chrisrey9644]

Love your video and I love this knife! I have a question because I don't know and I think you might. I see a strong family resemblance between the knives you've shown here and the Texas toothpicks, is there one or is it my imagination?

[@alpine1600s]

I separate traditional patterns and most knives based on machining. If it involved machining, mostly cnc, I consider it a modern piece.

[@Zen_Ali_123]

S'like they made that one just for you, my friend

[@KnifeChatswithTobias]

I'm just hoping it sells well enough for a follow up!

[@larrymackerethjr.3812]

Glad I saw this video. I was gonna get this but will pass. Would have preferred a strong pull. Especially since the knife is pinchable. But that’s just me. I like a slip joint to have a strong pull. Thank you for the show and tell

[@alexdetrojan4534]

That is a beautiful knife. Never heard of the name Sabacc before. Looks well made, but it is a little out of my price range. 🤔

[@seanprados4829]

I would buy 3 of them for Christmas gifts if it had a lock back

[@colosse83]

Nice slideshow music

[@larrymackerethjr.3812]

It’s definitely a beautiful knife though

[@RyanHamley-cl6en]

This in a push button auto would be tits .

[@KnifeChatswithTobias]

That would be pretty cool!

[@RyanHamley-cl6en]

Just got this in today It's better than I expected. The blade feels bigger than the handle too it's nice .

[@tricsike]

Looks to me like a Hungarian Fejesgörbe

[@richardmcginnis5344]

you know the word navaja means razor, its not the style or anything, i guess over time it may have become the name of the style but it means razor, i had an argument with someone over it because i posted a couple of swing guards with the same shape even had the ball pommel and the other person got all bent out of shape with their limited knowledge when i said they were made in japan but still navaja knives no they're not and all the rest of the naughty words, so i googled the word and took my screen shot and posted it just so i could say i told you so. never heard an answer or anything from him, i guess i got blocked oh well

[@KnifeChatswithTobias]

Yep. Navaja is actually a very generic term in Spain. The Joker knife I showed is sold as a traditional Sevilliana. In the US is it used basically for anything that looks remotely like a traditional Spanish "Dock Knife." And Spain has/had several patterns that fit that category.

[@speedwagon7562]

…trade with China seems to be slowly unwinding.., possibly, knife production will someday return to America… beautiful knife…

[@gizmocarr3093]

That is a Reserve made with you in mind.🙂

[@jowall5315]

If they can make these knives with no gaps, why can't they do that with all the others?

[@KnifeChatswithTobias]

Three to four time the price can buy a lot of quality control and finishing.

[@jowall5315]

@@KnifeChatswithTobias cheap Chinese labor is still cheap Chinese labor. Why pay more for someone doing the exact same thing for a $20.00 knife? These knives would be fantastic If they would just take more pride in their quality control.
